OT:
pwede pumunta HK as a tourist tapos maghanap ka na ng work dun? pwede ba yun? hindi ka ba huhuliin?

unless short talaga yung job market sa field of expertise mo eh mahihirapan ka maghanap ng work dun; i know because i tried. for sure it will be easier to get interviews compared to applying online from Manila; pero first question agad nila sa'yo is do you have HK work permit. konti lang ngayon ang companies that are willing to sponsor work visas. when local companies hire overseas they have to prove to immigrations that they have already exhausted all other local options.

Mataas ngayon ang unemployment among the youth sa Hong Kong. Ever since nagkaroon last year ng Minimum Wage Law (DH not included) of HKD 28/hr, maraming companies di na daw nagdagdag ng mga workers. You pay a doorman and a janitor the same wage...

BP on Austin Rd. Nathan has a good location behind the Park. YMCA in TST is Spartan but location is great, nr Peninsula.

Best location is Marco Polo and Prince in Canton Rd TST.

Try Park Lane or Hotel Panorama by Rhombus in TST. But with only a few days before your departure, you might not get a good hotel rate. Going rate ngayon is 2000++HKD a night.

I'm booked at Panorama in my next HK trip. First time i'll try this.

[lowslowbenz]

Try Ramada along Chatham Rd. TST.

Long stay package namin ni Mrs last year (December) for 6 nights/7 days was HK$ 5500. May A21 bus stop right in front of the hotel.

I miss HK street food, and the curry dishes in the "carinderias" along the side streets of Nathan road. :D

Guys for those who have kids na still cannot have their own room...how do you manage? I have 3 kids kase 8,7 and 4 most of the hotel accept only 2 kids. So which hotel kaya pwede for 3 kids and 2 adults? Thanks.

Recommended yung Marco Polo Gateway Hotel. Malaki yung room and malaki din yung kama. They have rooms for twin beds and you can request for additional folding bed. Best of all, nasa loob kana ng Mall.

[Jiggs]

Just checked their website ganun din Sir policy nila max 2children. If there will be an extra child ba will they allow it or an extra charge will apply? Ano ba mga experience nyo sir?

[boybi]

Hwag magpakita iba mong kasama while checking-in. Di naman sila nagiinspect ng room.

[Jiggs]

lol...classic style. Ganun talga practice ko dito sa Pinas...baka kako hindi umobra sa other country..lol

[boybi]

Ganyan ang style sa lahat ng hotels around the world

May nakita nga akong isang pic ng Pinoy tourists, 12 sila nagkasya sa isang room sa Kowloon Hotel. E sobrang liit lang ng rooms sa hotel na yun. Parang 20sqm lang yata area ng rooms dun kasama na bathroom. :bwahaha:

Novotel in Jordan is not strict with number of kids. Went there early this year with 3 kids. Similar age as yours. Told them not to go to the check in counter but they did not listen and went. Reception asked us if we wanted to get a 2nd room as we will not fit in their room since there are 5 of us. I told them we will manage. They let us check in.

Disney Hotel also allows 2 adults and 3 kids.

same with Eaton Smart Hotel, stayed there last May this year with 3 kids din, told my 2 kids to stay at the lobby, we inquired if we could upgrade to a bigger room kaso wala daw available

[Monseratto]

Sa mga hostels pwede mga sneak-ins, not strict.
